Dear Beth where do I begin in one's life that touched so many of us; I remember watching Dog the Bounty Hunter the first time and I saw you and I said wow just look at this beautiful classy lady with her high heels on and found myself amazed by you and always glued to the tv waiting for your show to come on. I heard of your diagnosis and started praying for you and was devastated of your passing and I miss you and I know Dog misses you too and believe in some way you sent Francine to be with him as he was suffering from a broken heart as he could not stop crying over your passing and I know you wanted him to live as there is work that still needs to be done. Miss you Beautiful Lady with your Big Beautiful Hair and of course your oufits and big high heels; until we meet again Fly High Beautiful Classy Lady.

I'm still watching Dog The Bounty Hunter to this very Day. Oh Beth, nothing is the same without you in this world. I know your Sweet Man "DOG" misses the hell out of you. No one will ever take your place in his life or heart either. The children have grown up to be so Beautiful and very Handsome. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us, right up till the very end. As I watch the re-runs of the shows, and remember back on everything do did, it brings tears to my eyes. I know for a fact, because I trust in The Lord Jesus Christ
that you are in perfect health and peace again. Up there taking care of your Daddy and Barbara Katie, and everyone else too. I wanted you to know that I think you were an amazing Woman and a Great Mother, and Devoted Wife. God Bless you Beth and know how much I loved you..

It´s January 13 2025 and I´m still binge watching Dog & Beth and all the kids. It´s my nightly ritual. I have watched all the kids grow up and have families of their own. I still and always will miss Beth. She was a very beautiful, courageous and good woman. She deeply loved her family and she would be so proud of them. I´m so curious to know and secretly wishing that Beth and Duane Lee ll (dogs son) made a mends before she passed but I don´t know the circumstances it´s just that I love them all. I will continue to love them, watch them and I will always miss Beth. RIP sweet soul. Linda

I still watch Dog reruns to this day. Beth was and will always be a stunning woman. She was a warrior..looking at her children she did an amazing job shaping them into the individuals they are today and I have no doubt how proud she is of all of them. She has impacted so many lives with her wisdom and the love and dedication she has shown to all. I wonder to myself why GOD would want to take such a vibrant human being from all who lowed hwr. Sometimes the greater plan is hard to understand but the LORD knows and that's all that matters...He loans us to our loved ones and that is the greatest gift of all. Beth is an Earth Angel who helped change so many lives and those people will always remember that...To Beth's family she walks with you in spirit each and everyday. God Bless you all..

As I have been binge watching Dog and Beth and all the kids it just makes me so sad. I miss seeing them all. I´m so sorry that Beth´s family lost such a warrior. She was an absolutely gorgeous woman and very strong. All this time has passed but I still miss Beth so much. She would be so proud of the kids and I love that I see Beth in Cecily. Love to all

I watched the show from day 1 buy my merch and was a proud supporter. Yet here I am after watching more reruns of the show, finding myself so sad. I know she passed in 2019 but her amazing legacy lives on in her family and fans. It makes realize live your life, keep your faith in God strong and love your family thru good and bad. I stopped living my life 4 yrs ago and while watching the show tonight it reminded me tomorrow is never promised. Rest in peace Beth. Thank you for sharing your life with us and learning what is important. Never give up and tomorrow is a new day. You were powerful here on earth as you are an angel. God bless the Chapman family and everyone who adore Beth and the show as much as I did.

Dear Dog, I am so sorry that you lost your love, your partner and the other piece of you that gave you strength of a special kind. I pray that God, your kids and that piece of Beth that you carry with you every moment of the day will help you hold onto the love that you had together until you hold hands again in heaven. God Bless you and thank you for sharing yourself and your family with all of us that send our love back to you.

How can words possibly describe such an entity as the ever beautiful Beth? They seem so insufficient. However I will try. I watched the show avidly and saw so many sides to her. She was the tough as nails bail bondsman (ladie) who took nothing from no one. As soon as she got the guy (or gal) she turned into the maternal nurturer and became a friend to so many through what was first a turbulent meeting. She was the strength and light not just of the show, but of her family, so clearly seen. I have often thought back to advice she so freely gave others and have implemented it into my own life. I never had the pleasure of meeting this amazing woman, regrettably. But, as I'm sure so many have, I felt as though I knew her. She was so genuine and intuitive. Words cannot express my sympathy for all your loss. Please, know her spirit and wisdom and strength do live on through her many great deeds. She was a remarkable woman and is now a beautiful, loud and bright light in heaven. Prayers and love to all who loved her. And, of course, my love and thoughts to her. God bless

That is really a good show and one of my best ones to watch. May God give all of you the peace and understanding to cope with all efforts you come up against. Keep up the good work and keep God as your partner always. Love all of you. Sandi Tutt, Tennessee
